"[We
considered the Alien and Sedition] acts as so palpably against the Constitution
as to amount to an undisguised declaration that that compact is not meant
to be the measure of the powers of the General Government, but that it
will proceed in the exercise over these States of all powers whatsoever...
[We] view this as seizing the rights of the States and consolidating them
in the hands of the General Government, with a power assumed to bind the
States, not merely as [to] cases made federal (casus foederis), but in
all cases whatsoever, by laws made, not with their consent, but by others
against their consent... This would be to surrender the form of government
we have chosen and live under one deriving its powers from its own will
and not from our authority." --Thomas Jefferson, Draft Kentucky Resolutions,
1798. ME 17:390

I knew
it would happen. As soon as my
last column was posted, along came the e-mails in defense of someone's
member of Congress: "It's not my congressman, it's the Democrats." Same
old denial. A sincere man sent me this: "I would suggest that Congressman
Steve King from Iowa is a true patriot, also." Well, let's take a look
at King's record regarding legislation
and the U.S. Constitution:

H.RES.942
: Recognizing the centennial anniversary on August 5, 2006, of the Iranian
constitution of 1906.

It's
not the business of a house member from the State of Iowa to waste time
introducing a resolution recognizing the constitution of any foreign country.
America is in full meltdown and what does a member of Congress waste his
time with? This kind of garbage and that's what it is, garbage.

H.J.RES.16
: Proposing an amendment to the Constitution of the United States to repeal
the sixteenth article of amendment.

This
is good, but one wonders why King would waste time introducing an amendment
to the U.S. Constitution under Article V (such an amendment has to be
ratified by 2/3rds of the states of the Union which would take years,
if not a decade to get through the process), when all King has to do is
stand on the house floor and tell the truth: the Sixteenth Amendment was
never ratified, period. It is simply a law that does not exist, therefore,
it is null and void.

H.R.3095
: To amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to clarify that wages paid
to unauthorized aliens may not be deducted from gross income, and for
other purposes.

This
is just more treating the symptoms instead of curing the cancer. Illegal
aliens, regardless of country of origin, have NO constitutional rights.
Their only right is to be immediately deported. They have NO right to
work in this country. Employers who knowingly have hired illegals in the
past have nothing to whine and cry about and what hubris they want to
be able to deduct any wages illegally paid to illegals.

Congress
as a whole, with the exception of Ron Paul and Tom Tancredo, have
sat on their backsides and allowed the disastrous immigration "reform"
baloney of 1986 gather steam into a full blown invasion destroying this
country and still, members of Congress want to play around with this
type of worthless legislation. Had Congress been doing their job the past
25 years, any employer caught employing illegals, regardless of country
of origin, should be arrested and thrown in jail. Forget fines, they just
pay them and then send their flunkies up to the local street corner and
hire more illegals. Send the employers to jail and see how things turn
around.

H.AMDT.311
to H.R.2745 Amendment places limits on the United States contributions
to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in
the Near East.

Same
old treating the symptoms. The US has no constitutional authority being
involved with the communist UN. The counterfeit U.S. Senate entered into
this treaty in violation of many clauses of the U.S. Constitution. The
American people have been raped for over 50 years to pay for this communist
organization whose mission is to destroy the sovereignty of the US. King
should be leading the way to formally get the US out of the UN instead
of introducing yet more legislation to steal from you to give to any branch
of the UN. Let's not forget there is NO money in the US Treasury to fund
any of this unconstitutional pillage of the people's purse - it
all has to be borrowed every single day and that debt is being slapped
upon the backs of YOUR children.

H.AMDT.374
to H.R.3057 Amendment reduces and then increases by the same amount funding
for the Global HIV/AIDS Initiative at the Department of State.

More
treating the symptoms instead of curing the cancer. No where does the
U.S. Constitution, the supreme law of the land, authorize Congress
to steal from you to give money to any "global" funding for medical treatment,
research or foreign aid of any flavor (including TENS of BILLIONS
to foreign countries to build up their military machines) and I am sick
to death of foreigners like Bonehead Bono blasting that the US doesn't
give enough for his pet projects. Here's a news flash for Bono: you know
nothing about our Constitution, so shut up and go away. The spread of
HIV/AIDS is a true human tragedy. However, it is up to the governments
of every country on the globe under their laws to see to their people;
additional resources come from private organizations who do give so much.
But, Congress cannot simply steal from the public treasury to fund this
type of charity operation. HIV/AIDS is completely preventable, but it
appears that people world wide (exempting those who contract it through
tainted blood supplies, etc) simply choose not to control the spread of
this deadly disease by choosing of their own free will to engage in activities
which continue to contaminate and kill.

H.AMDT.769
to H.R.609 Amendment sought to require each institution of higher education
that receives Federal funds to provide to the Office for Civil Rights
of the Department of Education a report regarding its students admissions
process beginning with a statement of whether race, color, or national
origin is given any weight in the student admissions process.

More
treating the symptoms instead of curing the cancer. Art. 1, Sec. 8 of
the U.S. Constitution does NOT authorize Congress to meddle into education.
The monstrous money sucking failure called the Federal Department of Education
given to us by the incompetent moron, Jimmy Carter, is unconstitutional
and every penny authorized by Congress for its operation is unlawful.
Education is a state's rights issue, not a federal one.

And,
the grand daddy of King's continued sell out of the American worker: his
endorsement of the destruction of the family owned farms and ranches and
another giant step towards a one world government monitoring system:

H.R.3170
: To establish a Livestock Identification Board to create and implement
a mandatory national livestock identification system.

Shame,
shame, shame on Congressman King. He cares nothing for farmers or anyone
else who raises livestock; see here
and here
- very important. If King had any understanding of agriculture and really
wanted to help American farmers and ranchers, he would be shouting down
the roof top to abolish the privately owned "Federal" Reserve and get
rid of the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1938; see here.
For this one piece of legislation alone, King should be thrown out of
office. Add King's vote for CAFTA and he should be fired post haste. (King
said CAFTA would strengthen "our democracy." Another idiot who doesn't
even know our legal form of government.) Our most important job sectors,
ag, industrial, manufacturing, are in ruins because of these unconstitutional
treaties like NAFTA, GATT and now CAFTA. The last thing we need is more
legislation which will continue destroying those who toil long and hard
to earn a living and provide the food on the tables of America.

This
is just a small sample of King's "work" on behalf of his constituents
and I say to my sincere e-mailer: Your congressman is upholding his oath
less than 50% of the time and the rest of his legislation is in violation
of Art. 1, Section 8 of the Constitution and selling US out along the
way. If you were an employer, would you continue to reward and employ
an individual who performed less than 50% of the time and whose actions
hurt people? Of course not. So, why should you continue to excuse your
member of Congress, your state legislature, sheriff, county commissioner
or any other elected public servant for doing the same? Know what
this is? It's lowering the standards of what you expect because
that incumbent is "the lesser of two evils" or because that incumbent
is sympathetic to spending that puts money in your pocket.

How
many more new "laws" or resolutions do we need? Go take a look at
your House member and counterfeit
U.S.
Senator's voting record and the endless, overwhelmingly unconstitutional
bills they have/are introducing and perhaps it will demonstrate to you
why I say vote against every incumbent in the U.S. Congress in November
except Ron Paul and Tom Tancredo. However, the sad reality is that your
vote might slip through and count, but with the machines controlling the
outcome, it's a very, very bad situation we are faced with and no time
to correct it for this election cycle.

Here
is the latest 2006
Pig Book of how the current Congress has spent/authorized the expenditure
of TRILLIONS of dollars when the U.S. Treasury is currently OVERDRAWN
by $8.8 TRILLION dollars. Yet, the foolish will continue to demand more
and more "bacon" for their district, more "free" prescription pills and
more BILLIONS for some nebulous "war on terrorism" instead of booting
the whole bunch out the door. The day
of reckoning is coming and those who aren't prepared for the worst
will be the ones who go under and my e-mailer shouldn't look to Congressman
King to save his constituents.

Think
it can't happen here in the US? Wishful thinking isn't going to get the
job done, only tens of millions of Americans getting out of denial and
doing everything they can to help educate their family, friends, business
colleagues, our fellow Americans down at the local VFW, the local grange,
local shooting club, local church, quilt shows, dogs shows, watering hole
and at town hall meetings. The more people who know the truth will mean
the difference. I hope wonderful organizations, i.e., Tom DeWeese's American
Policy Center, will put some of their critical information on CDs
as I have done to help get the truth out to Americans on the blue
print for total destruction: sustainable development. Putting your evidence
on CDs that people can listen to in their home or in their auto/truck
is working and we can make the numbers grow by the millions. If
I can help any organization, please contact me.
